Though the food is fresh, the end result isn't that much better compared to a grocery store sandwich. Not a bad sandwich by any measure, however the flavours are muted and plain.The aesthetic is nice. I do have a complaint about the front of house blasting completely different music than the back it ruins the atmosphere. I'm supposed to listen to alt rock with my right ear and house with my left?

Tried Scozzafava's for lunch! My friend recommended it.I got the hoagie sandwich and added fresh mozzarella, it was incredible, no notes. I wish I could've eaten it there because by the end, the bread was a little soggy as I had to drive a bit.The pickup was awesome, they had my food ready for me, and I'll be back!The only thing I'd recommend is if you want to substitute anything online it does cost money, like to take away arugula to add lettuce for example.

A perfect place. Heaven on earth. Very clean, prices are fair, food is delicious. Everything is as it should be. The Hoagie sandwich is everything that is good and right and just in this world. If more people made and ate sandwiches of this quality we would be much further along as a society

Perfect sandwiche to enjoy at a park. The service was good the cashier was friendly nice and made me smile by him enjoying his shift and having a smile on his face hehe. I had the Italian combo it had lots of flavor and spice . The restaurant was clean organized and had some good hard-core rap playing hehe. The restaurant had a old-school with a new modern feel to it I'll be back to try the chicken culet sandwiche. 😊

First of all, the meatball sub was excellent. It was so good I tried to eat all of it in one sitting instead of taking half home like I usually would with subs. But the thing that really made this place stand out was the customer service.I didn’t read the menu properly and missed that the regular bread is covered in sesame seeds, which I’m allergic to. My bad. One of the servers saw me picking off the outer layer of bread and asked if everything was ok. When I explained my error, he insisted that they could remake it with gluten free bread. It was so kind and he really made my day. I will definitely be back.

Had to go to this place because everyone I saw was mentioning it. It has great sandwiches, has the chicken Caesar and really enjoyed it. The chicken was balanced with the acidity. The bread is very soft and fresh. All service was kind and welcoming. Gonna definitely comeback and try and taste all of the different subs. Priced fairly, compared to firehouse ($16-20) and even footlongs at subway are $15 already. So better quality and taste for not much difference in price.

If you’re going to Scozzafava's Deli, do yourself a favour and get the Chicken Parm. It was easily one of the best I’ve ever tasted. It came out hot, fresh, and perfectly prepared. My friend suggested it and gave me a headsup to keep the napkins ready - they weren't kidding! It’s a delicious, hearty sandwich that requires a full stack of napkins and a big appetite. Sat at the counter to enjoy the hustle and appreciated the friendly staff.

Scozzafava's Deli in Calgary is an absolute must visit. I had two of the best sandwiches I have ever tasted! The Chicken Caesar was phenomenal fresh, crisp, and perfectly dressed. But the Meatball Parm truly stole the show; it was savory, messy in the best way, and utterly delicious. They seriously set a new standard for deli food. This spot is officially my first stop every single time I’m in town. Five stars, hands down.
